Anonymous Quotes
Non-injury To All Living Beings Is The Only Religion." (first Truth Of Jainism) "In Happiness And Suffering, In Joy And Grief, We Should Regard All Creatures As We Regard Our Own Self, And Should Therefore Refrain From Inflicting Upon Others Such Injury As Would Appear Undesirable To Us If Inflicted Upon Ourselves." "This Is The Quintessence Of Wisdom; Not To Kill Anything. All Breathing, Existing, Living Sentient Creatures Should Not Be Slain, Nor Treated With Violence, Nor Abused, Nor Tormented, Nor Driven Away. This Is The Pure Unchangeable Law. Therefore, Cease To Injure Living Things." "All Living Things Love Their Life, Desire Pleasure And Do Not Like Pain; They Dislike Any Injury To Themselves; Everybody Is Desirous Of Life And To Every Being, His Life Is Very Dear."
Yogashastra (Jain Scripture) (c. 500 BCE)
